Yesterday the Conference of Presidents of @europarl_en approved the proposal of 65 MEPs to set up a European day of commemoration for soviet deportations.
No political group raised objections.
Special thanks goes to @EP_President @RobertaMetsola for her unrelenting support. 1/2

Therefore, bridging the gap between Eastern and Western European remembrance is important as ever.
This is a small but significant victory for common European remembrance. 2/2
